Canadian Hotel Sues Guest For $95K Over Bad Review, Bed Bugs
An anonymous reader writes "A guest at at Quebec hotel was bitten by bed bugs, brought some down to the front desk and asked for new room. While the fully booked hotel offers to get him another room in a different hotel, he stays out the night then leaves — telling people at the hotel — some of whom also check out. When he wrote about it on Trip Advisor, the hotel demanded he take it down and when he did they sued him for $95,000."

The Quebec government has repeatedly used the notwithstanding clause to limit the use of languages other than French (mostly aimed at English) on matters that fall under provincial legislative purview. Only federal matters are fully bilingual.
